The Old Testament, specially the Law, was only a lantern (lamp or - TopicsExpress



          

The Old Testament, specially the Law, was only a lantern (lamp or candle) because it was an artificial light, imperfectly illuminating the darkness, whereas the Gospel, given by the Lord Jesus Himself, is a light of the Sun of Righteousness, giving brightness to all things. The Lord Jesus is Himself both lamp and light. He, the Word of God, is a great light to some, to others He is a lamp. To me Christ is a lamp; to angels a light, He was a light to Peter, when the angel stood by him in the prison, and the light shined about him. He was a light to Paul when the light from heaven shined around him, and he heard Christ saying to him, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? Jesus Christ is truly a lamp to those who repent of their sins and accept Him as Lord and Savior. Aleluya!
